A checklist of 82 ant species recorded from Gambia is given. Key words: ants, faunistics, Gambia, new country records. INTRODUCTION Ants fauna of Gambia (West Africa) is poorly known. Literature data, AntWeb and other Internet resources recorded only 59 species from this country. For comparison from Senegal, which surrounds three sides of Gambia, 89 species have been recorded so far. Both of these records seem poor when compared with 654 species known from the whole western Africa (SHUCKARD 1840, ANDRÉ 1889, EMERY 1892, MENOZZI 1926, SANTSCHI 1939, LUSH 2007, ANTWIKI 2017, ANTWEB 2017, DIAMÉ et al. 2017, TAYLOR 2018). Most records from Gambia come from general web checklists of species. Unfortunately, they lack locality data, date of sampling, collector name, coordinates of the locality and notes on habitats.

Degree awarded September 2017 ii © 2017 Sandy Steven Avomo Ndong iii THESIS ABSTRACT Sandy Steven Avomo Ndong Master of Arts Department of International Studies September 2017 Title: Human-wildlife Conflict: Comparing Pongara and Ivindo National Parks in Gabon Human-wildlife conflicts around protected areas are important issues affecting conservation, especially in Africa. In Gabon, this conflict revolves around crop-raiding by protected wildlife, especially elephants. Elephants’ crop-raiding threaten livelihoods and undermines conservation efforts. Gabon is currently using monetary compensation and electric fences to address this human-elephant conflict. This thesis compares the impacts of the human-elephant conflict in Pongara and Ivindo National Parks based on their idiosyncrasy. Information was gathered through systematic review of available literature and publications, observation, and semi-structured face to face interviews with local residents, park employees, and experts from the National Park Agency.

  • Pro-Poor Tourism in Madagascar: Rural Development Through the Tourism Industry
    Pro-poor tourism in Madagascar Rural development through the tourism industry Haingo Andriamasilalao Pro-poor tourism in Madagascar: Rural development through the tourism industry Haingo Andriamasilalao, B.S. in Architecture March, 2020 Thesis for Master of Architecture School of Architecture and Interior Design (SAID) Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP) University of Cincinnati Advisory Committees: First Chair: Michael McInturf, MArch Second Chair: Elizabeth Riorden, MArch Abstract How can the tourism industry of Madagascar bring an economic, cultural and architectural survival to the rural area of the country? Being one the most famous touristic countries in the world, the tourism industry of Madagascar has become a vital asset to the economy of the country. Tourism is one of Madagascar’s sources of growth along with agriculture, textile and mining. Unfortunately, because of the poverty and the on-going political crisis of the country, the tourism sector suffers which only impedes its potential to greatly develop and to be fully exploited. According to the World Bank however, the sector has displayed impressive resilience and the economy of the country is forecast to grow positively in the future. But even so, for a developing country like Madagascar, where the rural poverty of the country is widespread, it is not enough to assume that the benefits of economic growth will trickle down automatically to the poor. Tourism can contribute to development and the reduction of poverty in a number of ways. This thesis will focus especially on Pro-Poor Tourism (PPT) which is defined as tourism that generates net benefits for the poor. Benefits may be economic, but they may also be social, environmental and cultural.

There have been some significant changes at Bradt recently. A few months ago we moved to bigger offices, and we are now safely settled in the Buckinghamshire market town of Chesham (with only a few cardboard boxes still to unpack). And, as we go to press, we have just completed the acquisition of Footprint Travel Guides, a publisher with a long history and a list that complements ours very nicely (particularly with its guides to the Caribbean and South America). Such changes reflect the strong growth that Bradt has witnessed in the past few years, further reinforcing our position as the UK’s largest independently owned guidebook publisher. Alongside these changes, other things have continued as usual. For the second year in a row, Bradt was voted Top Guidebook Series in the Wanderlust Reader Awards, and Hilary Bradt’s very own Slow Travel: Exmoor National Park was declared Best Guidebook of the Year by the British Guild of Travel Writers. We also stayed true to our roots by commissioning a typically colourful choice of new books for publication in 2020.

    Ebook Free Mozambique (Bradt Travel Guide Mozambique) This new seventh edition of Bradt's Mozambique remains the most established and only standalone guide to this alluring country. Complete with in-depth coverage of transport, wildlife, history, culture and accommodation, plus invaluable practical advice and maps, this honest handbook will help you plan the perfect visit. Particularly useful is the selection of reputable local tour operators. Mozambique is a country of two halves. The tourism-savvy south offers palm-lined tropical beaches, luxury lodges and diving to rank with the best in the world, plus the capital Maputo, a city oozing with Afro-Mediterranean flair. The undeveloped northern mainland, by contrast, is one of Africa's last frontiers, with thrillingly vast game reserves and stunning coastal panoramas that draw intrepid travelers to those hankering after barefoot luxury. With economy-boosting oil and natural gas potential on the horizon, Mozambique is on its way to reclaiming its standing as one of Africa's top destinations. However, despite being one of Africa's fastest developing tourist countries, it still offers the opportunity to experience the ‘quintessential Africa'. Having once stood in the ranks with South Africa, over twenty years of post-civil war development and one of Africa's highest growth rates are drawing tourists back to its 2,500km of palm-fringed coastline. Best visited between May and October, Mozambique is dotted north to south with natural, historical, cultural, and architectural wonders remnant of its varied history of exploration, trade, and cultural fusion. Highlights include the UNESCO world heritage site, Ilha de Moçambique, a 16th-century Arab and Portuguese trading post, ancient rock art at Chinhamapere Hill, tea plantations and an exploration of Mount Namuli, itself the subject of a documented expedition by American climber and filmmaker Majka Burhardt.
